Chapter 316 - 316: Friction
"What's wrong?" Ruby noticed Ethan's unusual behavior. In the past, he would have definitely exploded in anger and been ready to take action.
Why was he in such a good mood today? Even if he couldn't beat up the crown prince of the Stellar Empire, he shouldn't be this calm.
Then, Ruby looked in the direction where Ethan's gaze was fixed,
and she saw a figure not far behind Silas that she was very familiar with.
"So that's it. The aura coming from that person is typical of an Eighth Level Beast Master. No wonder Ethan has been in such a good mood today." Ruby thought to herself.
She recognized that person, he was a teacher from the Stellar Empire's Cyber Academy.
Every country in the Abyssal Depths has its own branch of the Cyber Academy, and the relationships between these branches are not always harmonious. Some academies even have intense rivalries.
The relationship between Genosha Cyber Academy and Stellar Empire Cyber Academy belongs to the more hostile category.
Now that the other side had an Eighth Level Beast Master teacher with them, Genosha only had her and Ethan as the two Seventh Level Beast Masters. If a conflict truly broke out, they would definitely be at a disadvantage!
"Let's go. We'll talk about this later. We should be able to enter the Eye of Ice and Fire tomorrow. Resting well is the most important thing." Ruby said slowly.
At the same time,
the Eighth Level Beast Master who had been following Silas and the others slowly walked over and disdainfully said:
"What good is resting? With a genius from the Stellar Empire here, you Genosha people have no chance."
As soon as those words were spoken, the surrounding Genosha people immediately turned their gaze to him.
Feeling the angry stares from the crowd, the man scoffed disdainfully. Instantly, the pressure of an Eighth Level Beast Master radiated out, and the entire street fell silent.
Some Beast Masters who lacked sufficient strength couldn't withstand this pressure and collapsed to the ground.
"Zorion! You're being a bit too arrogant!" Ethan's aura surged, elemental energy coursing through him, his muscles bulging as he prepared to take action.
"Ethan, I am now an Eighth Level Beast Master, and you're still a Seventh Level Beast Master. Do you really want to make a move?" Zorion, the Eighth Level Beast Master from Stellar Empire Cyber Academy, said slowly.
Ethan took deep breaths, feeling astonished. He never expected that Zorion, who had once been defeated by him, had now become an Eighth Level Beast Master!
"Zorion! This is Genosha, don't be so arrogant." Ethan gritted his teeth and said.
Zorion didn't care at all. He slowly walked behind Silas and said, "Let's go. There's nothing worth seeing here among these Genosha Beast Masters, they're all just trash."
Silas chuckled loudly, not holding back at all, and replied, "You're right. Compared to the geniuses of our Stellar Empire, they fall far behind."
Immediately, those from the Stellar Empire burst into loud laughter, their expressions incredibly arrogant.
Only Alyssa, Dante, and Asher wore forced smiles, their gazes darting around as if
"Good luck tomorrow! Take them down!"
"Charles, it's up to you tomorrow. Show them what a monster really is!"
...
Hearing the shouts and seeing the excitement and anticipation on the faces of the crowd, Charles and the others instinctively clenched their fists and nodded vigorously.
"Let's go back for now. The dean will be coming tomorrow as well." Teacher Ruby said slowly.
Ethan had fallen into silence ever since he saw Zorion. Even on the way back to the hotel, he hadn't said a word.
"Teacher Ruby, what's wrong with Teacher Ethan?" Charles asked, a bit puzzled.
Ruby sighed, glanced at Ethan, and spoke softly:
"Well, the Eighth Level Beast Master from the Stellar Empire just now has a significant conflict with Ethan. He was once defeated by Ethan, and now he has become an Eighth Level Beast Master. It must be tough for Ethan."
After hearing this, Charles understood. Zorion was indeed too arrogant, and everyone from the Stellar Empire had that same haughty attitude.
Charles took a deep breath. If it hadn't been for Teacher Ruby and Ethan's appearance, along with Nathaniel's arrival, he would have already stepped forward.
Now, there was only one question in Charles's mind. It felt like the crown prince of the Stellar Empire, Silas, wanted him to come out and fight.
"Is it because of Alyssa and the others? Or is it for some other reason?" Charles couldn't make an accurate judgment.
"By the way, Charles, don't underestimate them tomorrow. The Stellar Empire does have real geniuses. Mira is Zorion's daughter, an Eighteenth Level Beast Master at just eighteen, and she has an even stronger Eighth Level Beast Master teacher." Ruby reminded him.
Charles nodded. He wouldn't underestimate his opponents, valuing every enemy was a quality that a true strong person should possess.
"Teacher, will there be a fight during the Eye of Ice and Fire tomorrow?" Charles asked.
Ruby shook her head and replied, "It's still unclear what the specific arrangements are. The Eighth Level Beast Masters from the Stellar Empire and Genosha should provide the results."
Charles nodded, it seemed they would have to wait until tomorrow.
After returning to the hotel, Charles quickly washed up and chose to rest.
Early the next morning,
as soon as Charles stepped out of his room, he saw many students waiting for him.
"What's going on? What happened?" Charles asked, a bit confused.
Jace gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and said excitedly:
"Charles, those Stellar Empire people are going too far! They deliberately provoked the students and then challenged them. Many students have been seriously injured by them! Now they are being treated by the teachers."
